Charli XCX Drops New Music Video for “Used To Know Me”
British singer-songwriter Charli XCX has dropped a new music video for “Used To Know Me”.
The song is included on her fifth studio album “Crash”, which was released back in March.
It was written by Charlotte Aitchison, Noonie Bao, Dylan Brady, Linus Wiklund, Fred McFarlane, and Allen George.
The video was directed by Alex Lill.
Charli XCX told Apple Music about the song, “I was trying to emulate myself on ‘Fancy’—or get back into that headspace. I really remember searching for the chorus melody to ‘Fancy’ in a way that I hadn't really searched for a melody before. Normally I'm very instinctual and spontaneous when it comes to melodies, but with ‘Fancy,’ I had to really maneuver my brain around different corners to figure it out—to understand the formation of the notes. I wrote this on my own at Stargate’s studios, which probably made me feel like I had to write a really big pop song, and then when I was listening to it on repeat in my car, I just started singing the synth line to ‘Show Me Love’ by Robin S. So I called a few people and was like, ‘Is this possible?’ And everyone said, ‘Yes, but do you care about publishing?’ And I was like, ‘I guess not.’ It feels to me like a big song—it’s about reshaping who you are after a breakup.”- source : YouTube
